monkeynuts Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Afternoon all Right, ive been reading the self build threads on here and probably being over ambitious ive decided i'd jump in at the deep end and try and build a Red LLama!!! Ive had a look at the layout on the below link; [url="http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/main.php/v/DRAGONFLY-LAYOUTS_0/album17/album06/WH_RED_LLAMA_001.jpg.html"]http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/main.php...MA_001.jpg.html[/url] Couple of questions before I order the bits and bobs as it looks fairly straight forward (famous last words!) 1. Are the pots for volume and fuzz both linear, I presume they are but best check! 2. How would I go about adding a on/off led? 3. What size enclosure would be best? 4. Any mods I should think about doing before I start working to those plans? Sorry for all the questions but I have no clue what I'm doing on this so learning as I go! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umph Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 1. lin would be ideal 2. [url="http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/switch_lo_3pdt_ig_dcjack.gif?phpMyAdmin=78482479fd7e7fc3768044a841b3e85a"]http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagra...68044a841b3e85a[/url] This would be the best option for the llama 3. Go for whatever size you feel comfortable putting it in but it should fit in a boss sized one easily. 4. You could play around around with the size of the 51pf and 100pf caps making them larger or smaller to make the circuit more or less bright, other than that bigger input cap although at the minute, it should cover all usable frequencys. You could also decrease the size of the input resistor to increases brightness / gain if you wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
